I didn't think it would bug me so....

Ok, so Wrath is all up & running on Fal's PC. He wants to me to watch & be involved & it just sucks out loud. While I am estatic for him to be having so much fun, I can't help the sinking feeling in the pit of my belly.

Watching all the newness of the DK area makes me yearn to play my little Shrinnja. (Name thanks to Daak the Sidhe Devil) I was torn between that name & Shrinniggit for awhile, but I think I have decided now :P
I thought I was coming around to the idea of just not really playing until the spring...HAH! I am SUCH a junkie! I need a hit of WoW man! I need the Wrath of Shrinnja! lol!
But, you know, if I can't play Grai & Fal & Sheena, Mah Hunny's DK will be so far ahead of me AGAIN! It's been so nice over this last almost year to actually play with my BF on level with his toons. It just feels like going backwards a bit. I am going to lose some of my love of this game if I'm constantly begging him to help me level my toons! *sigh* & we had just stopped fighting over stupid shit regarding this game lately.

Thank God I know I have friends in Sihde Devils that will help run me thru stuff or answer my stupid questions coming up thru. Not that Fal/Grai isn't super & he is still one of my best WoW resources. I just don't wanna be bugging him with constant nagging question after question.

Ok, I think that I'm done with that rant for a bit!
Thanks for listening :)


*note: I got to play Shrinnja some tonight! Goodness, that was SO much fun! I have the bestest hunny in the world!

Is there a Doctor in the house?

Yes, Yes, there actually is. The Fine, Upstanding, "Young" Man A.K.A. Dr. Graimerin Falromord has been working to fix my computer since we woke up this morning!

It's has been shutting it's self off over night a couple to a few times over the last week or so. Did I tell the Doc? Of course not! I worry about the health of my PC just a might bit better then my own personal health & that's not saying much, folks. I also was wondering if my lil man had gotten up to go potty at night, messed with my PC & shut it off, in hopes of not getting caught.

Well, I woke up, it was turned off & John is with his father this weekend. No chance of just shrugging it off this time. So, I had to reboot from the power strip like I had been when it's done this to me in the past. & O, my, o, my, what a horrendous noise we had coming for the external fan in the back.


*sigh*
*nervousness kick into high gear now*


After all day of My Love, the most handsomest, wonderfulest man in the entire world, fiddling with the system he built me 3 -ish years ago, it's borked! I have no PC for the xpac, I have no PC for emails, I have no PC for paying bills, I have no PC for checking the bank.

*inhale, exhale*
*breathe deep & try not to kill people*
*find your happy place*


We still have his system for the urgent stuff. The "grown up" stuff. The stuff I absolutely MUST, beyond a shadow of a doubt, get done. BUT I don't have MINE!

I do not care for his system. I'll use it when needed, yes. Will I be able to "hang out" on it for hours on end like I can do on mine? Nope!

Can we afford to get me a new system right now? Nope! We were planning on building a whole new one in the spring, at tax time. It'll run us about the same as the old one he built me almost 3 years ago, but it'll be an ass load better, with screamin high capabilities for all the things I use my system for.

So, unless a miracle happens, I will be in hibernation for several months.


I'll miss ya's. Please make sure you all have enough fun in Azeroth for the two of us, okies? Thankies!

Shrinns Twins...

...er, cousins at least! hehe!








Now, try to tell me gnomes aren't cute! & they taste great in Orgrimmar stew, also! hehe

Found some oldies but goodies

.......... & some I'd never seen before. Since I like so much to pop in random pics to my random rants, I went looking for a few more! Ok, the old b&w cartoon pic that wouldn't open far enough for you, the reader, to read. Gah, that annoyed me so much that I sifted thru thousands of WoW pics on photobucket (where I originly found it) so I'll be leading with that!

I just think this cartoon is classic. It says a world of things about not just Blizzard. Blizz is just doing what sells....Sex crazed girls, that's what sells, according to gaming developers.

& wanna know something? If I had written the words in that bubble above the human's head, it would simply state, "Mah milkshake brings all da boiz to the yard." (sadly, I love that song!)







While we're on the subject, how falic are so many things in WoW? Ok, forget WoW, let's look at it a bit more objectively...videos games in general. I realize that people (not just men) are visually stimulated. I don't mean on a sexual level necessarily....... Although, that is a whole new issue all together. We can show such horrible violence on the screen, big & TV levels & in vidoes games, but we must hide most sexuality. That's a might @$$ backwards, if you ask me. Let's hero worship death, killing & dieing & forget to celebrate, & instead demonize, how we all even got here in the first place!








While we're on THAT subject, allow me to shift just a touch here & talk about the fact that the "bluest of blue" states voted against same sex marriage, but said "hellz mo fo'in yea" to more better accsess to MaryJane....Ganga Yum! lmFao!










Well, I don't suppose Grass ever made anyone ever kill anyone...
but I'm sure stuff that looks more kinda like this........







the needle in the picture not the purposed content here!

But again, I couldn't help but ROTFLMAO when I saw this choice tidbit!


Now, many things would not even be funny if they didn't have a dash of truth added in there. While we're talking about our WoW addiction in common, let's throw in a visual, shall we? (Hi, My name is Mary & I am a WoW Addict)





Now, I have finally given you a glimpse of my idea of ranting. I figure the name ought to hold true somewhere in all this mess.........


Hoping some folks got the giggles intended, Possibly I may have offended some of my dear readers, but Lastly, & Most importantly, maybe, *Hopefully, you stopped to think.




*Hope is never hopeless.
**Hope is always possible.
***Hope is endless in it's possiblities!

The Nasirah & Elysse & Coralin Show

Druids for the motha lovin' WIN! You should've seen Nas tearin it up on Attumen, Moroes & the seasonal boss! She rocked it out! Woot! I had so much fun helping off tank. Coralin saved my bacon several times over. Nimble, agile, quick minded, that one, because we had a couple of crazies & he picked em up lickety split!
Well, of course I have pics, don't be silly! heheh! I cannot believe I picked up the main tanking duties on my baby 70 in Kara! Wow!




Nightbane FTW! I was shaking in my fur! For really!







I loathe this fight! I missed the green beam, of course, Netherspite healed back to full health. I am a slacker! (I still agree with Wulfa. This dragon looks like a she. Very pretty! I lurve dragons, not crazy about this one however & besides, why else would it be such a pain in the @$$? hehe )






But we prevail! Yay!



Ok, now I have seen some amazing tanks have a bit of trouble on this fight. Thank God for the nerf bat, that's all I can say. I got lucky, so damn lucky!








My wonderful friends carried my goofy butt all the way thru that raid last night! Thank you SO very much!

I can haz emotional basketcase...

& I can haz her everytime I look in the mirror! And, lately, I can haz her most times I log into WoW. I dunno y, I do know however that something has got to change for me. I have been "chronically ill" on & off for about 2 & a half years. When the docs told me it was "all in my head" & the "head" medications did not work, I stopped caring. Doesn't change the fact that I feel like shit more often then not. Doesn't change the fact that I am tired & worn out from simply working a 4-6 hour shift. Doesn't change the fact that somewhere along the way I not only stopped listening to a good friend that told me years ago "To thine own self be true.", I have choosen to utterly ignore that lovely tidbit of advice. I have tuned the "smart" people out & been living inside my own little head. Can be a frightfully dangerous place to live all alone in the dark sometimes.


Yes, Yes, to many of you folks that feel you may "know" me from the game or from myspace & somehow managed to find me here. (cause I can no longer accsess my myspace page) You might just be asking yourself, is this really the fun loving silly Shrinn we know? Everyone has their bugaboos, my friends, everyone!

Weird thing is tho, about 2&1/2 years ago is when I fell of the wagon & started binge drinking again. No, I am not a binge drinking currently. Not only can I not afford it but I cannot raise my son in a coherent manner in that state of mind. So I'm thinking that it might be time for me to get my ass back to those damned brainwashing meetings again. Cuz those people seem to really get me. So, if my mental health & head space begins to impinge on my game time, blog time & just plain sitting my big ole bum in front of my PC, so be it.

I thought Halloween an appropriate time to bring up my skeletons. Lookie there, Lich King isn't even out & I'm raising the dead!

FanArt

Gah, I really wish sometimes that I was this talented...or that I had the whole puter set up my seriously talented cousin has. He's this kind of artist...unfortunatly, even tho he's more then good enough to work for Blizz, last time I mentioned it to him he reminded me of his stance on "selling out to corporations".....GAH!
Anyhow I was playing around checking out some new FanArt on worldofwarcraft.com & thought I'd share my new desktop & future ones & some of my oldie but goodie faves :P




New desktop...Two of my most fave things in the world...Dragon & Fairies ....o, wait, there's no belf males in that pic! HEHE







This one here "might" be actual Blizz artist work but I can't be sure. Waht's your vote?


Last but DEFINETLY not least..........







LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that!
Tru Story!


*note...apparently, this pic doesnt open enuff so that u can read the words...It's something along the lines of "ever wonder how these skimpy clothes they call armour keep us alive?" & of course all the boiz are drooling!

Quitters never win...

Winners never quit. Soz....
I'm not giving up WoW! Of course I'm not giving up WoW. You had to know I wasn't gonna quit!
Yes, Yes, I've gone through these feelings a time or twenty before. & I'll go thru them again, but for now, I'm sticking with it!
We PWNED Kara last night (No surprise there) Mah Hunny formed the group. We had all but one guildie & a very dear friend & old guildie joined us to give a hand :)
Ishi did a great job on raid leading & we all had fun. I got two new peices of healy gear on Elysse, Wewt!
Elysse now has a shadow following her around & those things say some effed up stuff! I need to get my ass to Darnassus cuz that thing freaks me out!
Well, I'm gonna go do that now :)

Thanks for listening to my rants yet again ^.^
